@follys-dance requested a small starter from HERMES (Hades verse)!

As much as he held his reputation of speedy and efficiency, his reputation was only partly the reason why he did it. The other reason was it meant more time to do what he liked in between everything else. A lot of that was either invested in his businesses or exploring all realms for a good time.

So far, Club Rhada was living up to his expectations. His beverage and meal sat untouched - Hermes enjoying their sight and smell - and he stayed as the club fell into a lull of customers. It was then that he saw a dancer approach and gestured for her to join him, disguised as yet another hero of this realm.

“I must say, your dancing is spectacular, woman. Outshone everyone else about.” Hermes said, voice gruff and somewhat roughened, a result of the neck injury causing the scarring about his neck. All just another sign that Hermes liked character acting. Leaning back in his chair, the disguised Olympian offering his food to her. He couldn’t eat it after all. Ah he did recognise the poor Ate, was there to hear of all the drama and plotting she was mixed up in. Poor her.

“Are you a regular?”

❛ You don’t know how hard it is being a woman looking the way I do. ❜ (@megaera o///o)

who framed roger rabbit? || meg looks directly into the camera

"What are you trying to say, exactly?"

Small? Petite? Beautiful? Or approachable? She'd ask for specifics but did it really make much of a difference? It kind of ticked her off either way. Meg couldn't say she shared the same experiences when it came to this kind of thing (love, flings, romance, blah-) but what a thing to gripe about.

"I don't know what you're going through at all. But seriously. Being straight forward with your intentions from the start has never failed me before. Know where you stand. Let other people know what they place. Put them in their place if you have to. Or know your own. Save yourself the headache. There isn't a place for kindness if someone missteps. Consequences carry over."

“You.... probably don’t forgive me. For Ampelos.” Atë’s lavender eyes were almost tearing up. She couldn’t see him after being banished from Olympus. But ever since that tragedy, she couldn’t bear to face Dionysus ever again. And finding sanctuary in the underworld implied she never would, but now?... Well,... now she had no choice. If he had any wrath in him, she’d take it gladly.

UNPROMPTED / @follys-dance​

A sting of distaste at the sight, intermingled with fondness at the mentioned name of his beloved satyr.  There was no issue in hearing of him, he wouldn’t have painted him into history had he never wished otherwise, but coming from her?  Why, the god wasn’t quite sure what to think.  ❛ Yeah, yeah, you’re real sorry, aren’t you ? I’ve gotta say you’re really giving me mixed signals, and I do mean really ! ❜  

His wrath was ephemeral in its lifespan, and he quite enjoyed the fact, yet her prompt disappearance after the incident left but emptiness in its wake.  ❛ Now, now, don’t get me wrong, all right ?  Maybe I’d even have appreciated the all teary-eyed attempt back then, people make mistakes, I do too.  You would have still been punished, of course, but maybe, just maybe, I wouldn’t have held on it too long, yeah ?  I’m not known for century-old grudges, not usually. ❜  A pause, just to get himself back on topic. ❛ But my issue, as I’m sure you know, is if you really are sorry when you ran away instead of facing me for what you did ? ❜

He leans against the staff.  ❛ And, even better, would you have faced me if I hadn’t stumbled on you ?  ❜  That was the thing, wasn’t it ?    ❛ You want me to punish you, don’t you ?  To feel even ? ❜

 @follys-dance​ : "Ummh.. W-what about a consensual kiss to the hand? Out of respect..."

   “With my permission, I will allow it. I should add that wet kisses are not allowed.     Unless the kisser wants to lose their lips altogether.”

❛ i guess every lonely girl would hope she’s a princess. ❜ (@Meg. She took up the offer to go have a drink in the lounge?)

   “If you’re a mortal and still living? Yeah. I’d imagine that wouldn’t be half bad. But purely for the luxury. If anything, finding good company as a princess might actually be harder. I’m not sure if royalty down here makes things any easier either for that matter, but I can’t speak for the Gods... You don’t need to be a princess to draw in someone’s attention, Choreftria. You can do it on your own merits. Titles, reputations and privileges get you only so far. The rest you’ve got to do yourself.”

( @follys-dance​ ) Ate  ||  continue: a most precious thing

A dance. One from the goddess who was cast from aboveー whose love for the art had caused much misfortune. Clotho had yet to witness Ate’s skill with her own eyes, making it quite a valuable gift indeed. Intrigued by this offering, Ate now had something which very few were ever given; the undivided attention of the Moirai. Wordlessly, she sat with one leg crossed over the other, hovering as if there were a seat unseen beneath her. With one hand in her lap, the other gestured for Folly to proceed. Her sisters were sure to be watching nearby.

@follys-dance || continued cause this will be a short exchange i promise

She’d seen that expression on many an occasion. It was one of fear and intimidation. The fury's ruthless reputation was useful when it came to work, but hardly advantageous when having a regular conversation with shades and other inhabitants of the Underworld. For someone who hasn’t committed an offense against her, there was hardly any need to be afraid. She couldn’t blame the woman for whatever it was that frightened her though. Shades talked. The stories that passed by word of mouth were not always pure exaggeration either. Even so, Meg wasn't here to hurt. Not today. She was here to help.

   “Thank you, but I couldn’t." Megaera held the bracelet out further in encouragement. She smiled and shrugged a shoulder.

    “Besides, it’s a bit tight on me. I have big wrists. You're Choreftria, aren't you..? Was this made for you, or did you buy it? Either way gold looks good on you, so take it already. Otherwise it'll just go straight into the Lost and Found collection with your name on it, and that'd be kind of a waste."
